A former Catholic priest has been sentenced to four years in prison for what a judge described as a ”systematic campaign” of sexual abuse against young boys.
Dan Curran, 61, from Newcastle, Co Down, admitted sexually assaulting two altar boys when he was a parish priest in Belfast in the late 1980s.
The abuse took place at an isolated cottage where Curran took his victims at weekends.
